The Boer girl of the country

Republic "is abie to go to towu

it is to attend the Nachtmaal or

festival of these daeply religions
people," writes Howard C. Hil
iegas of "The Bosr Girl of South
Africa," in the January Ladies'
Home Journal. "The Journey to
the town is made in ox-teams, and
may require a week's or a month's
time, bub it is always an epoch in
a Boer girl's life, especially if
she is abont 16, when she is sup
posed to have attained the matri
monial age. Then some tall,
robust Boer youth, whom she has
met at former Naehtmaals, may
summon enough courage to ask
her whether he may call at her
home and have 'up-sitting." which
is a sort of ultimatum. If she
consent the young Boer will
shortly afterward ride on horse
back many mils across the plain
to the girl's home, and will prove
that he worthy of her love by
sitting up' and talking wiLhher

For two young Boers to arrive at

There is no use talking a biby in tfaa house is the line that binds
husband and wife togetlier. Nothing is sadder than fruitless wedlock..
The prattling: and ccoins of the fittte ones offset a thousand times thi
occasional worries ar.d triab of lite. When a wife is barren, there & a
derangement some-vhere in the genital organs, caused by oe or more of
those common disorders known as " female trohbks". Wbu of Cardui
is the remedy. It puts the oigans of generation in a stron? and healthy
condition, fitting the wife for the sacred duty of reprodecinr her kind.
During the period of gestation the entire system of the eipcunt mother
is built up to withstand the ordeal of hbor, and wboo the little one
maxes its advent it is lusty and
strong well-fitted to grow to ma
turity in perfect heaKh. The
mother, too; passes through the
trkl with Rttte paw ad no dread.
Wine of Cardui is truly a wonder

The English, according to Science
Pour Tout, hav& adopted quite an orig
inal plan. In manyhouaes, on the table
by the side of the pepper bar and the
salt bos is placed a sand box a little
receptacle filled with very fine sand, as
fine as flour, which is sprinkled over
all the food. A medical journal has ad
vised dyspeptics to adopt this remedy"
The sand, mingling with the alimen
tary mass, loaders it less compact and
makes digestion more easy. This ha3
become the fashion, and since the Eng
lish have begun to eat sand it is certain
that French enobs who imitate their
neighbors across the channel like mon
keys will soon be devouring it Besides,
gravel for digestive purposes has been
in use by ostriches for a' long time.
